It’s a fitting OIB moment when city officials raise their hands and swear at the street address named ‘Lyon’ Terrace. Make me no promises, I tell you no lies. (Or something like that.) The swearing-in ceremony for the 2017 elected officials will take place December 3rd at 5 pm in City Council Chambers, 45 Lyon Terrace. See below those who’ll receive the oath of office for Board of Education, Sheriff and City Council.

Joel, CC 133rd court challenge. Go Anne &Bobby!
Thank you Joel. Too much turkey.
Thought it was the stuffing and candied yams…
When Joel speaks, it’s best to listen.
He swam to America.
He has a brain the size of a battleship and
He knows more than he can tell.
I swear, I swear, I swear!!!!
Its like the Christmas present that keeps on giving.

Judge refuses to reject City primary challenge.
Go Bobby Go!!!
Let’s get that slippery nipple Mario T on the witness stand.
Then the cookie will start to crumble.
The police officer is bound by professional oath to uphold the law. Testa and DeFilippo will be bound by oath to tell the truth. The Constitutional protection against self incrimination only goes so far. Judge Bellis can hold Mario and his bartender in contempt of court. She’ll let them rot in a jail cell unless and until they testify truthfully.
This is the big time. Maybe, just maybe the days of corrupt machine politics in Bridgeport are coming to an end.
